Each Premier wine store has received numerous awards from leading global wine publications for their world-class wine selections, and Premier liquor stores have been serving as Buffalo's local wine stores for over 50 years now! With the largest selection of premium wines and premier spirits, each Premier wine store boasts something for everyone. For everything else, there's Premier Gourmet, a gourmet food and specialty store like no other!

COVID-19: Update and Safety Precautions We're Taking

Amidst the coronavirus pandemic, we want to let you know that we're still open and that we're taking every precaution possible to keep our customers and employees safe. One way we're encouraging social distancing within the framework of our business is by offering new ways to shop that limit person to person interactions:

Free Curbside Pickup on Online In-Store Pickup OrdersWe're offering curbside pickup on all in-store pickup orders placed on Premier Group websites. However, we're under-staffed to help prevent spread of the disease, so orders are taking longer than an hour to fulfill.

Free and Discounted Local Delivery to Nearby NeighborhoodsWe're offering free local delivery on orders over $150 to certain nearby neighborhoods. Most orders are delivered within 24-48 hours. Please note that the order must be $150 after any discounts and before taxes, and from an included zip code, for the free local delivery option to appear on our websites.

Premier Wine & Spirits

Location and Hours

The original Premier wine store opened in 1943 in Kenmore, NY has now expanded to have the largest square footage of wine and spirits sales space in the country, since moving to the new wine store (Amherst) location in 2012. Wines from every major wine-producing country are available, as are premier spirits -- the store boasts one of the largest selections of artisan brands and old favorites.

With smaller boutiques within the store featuring staff picks by country, varietal or wine type, highly-rated wines, food-pairing selections and special buys, the vast selection of products becomes easy and fun to shop. Meanwhile, aisle locations organized by country allow customers to browse the Premier wine store more thoroughly.

Premium Wine & Spirits

Location and Hours

In the early 1990s, in the spirit of the original Premier wine shop run by his father, Mark Notarius opened a new Premier location on Transit Road. With this new Premier wine stop, Williamsville residents now had access to the same Premier selection and service in their neighborhood. The Transit Road Premier spirits shop carries on the Premier wines tradition of offering a wide selection of premium wines and spirits from around the world. This location is particularly famous for single-malt Scotches — both in the value category and rarer, limited-edition bottlings — one of the best selections in the country!

Prestige Wine & Spirits

Location and Hours

The newest Premier wine store, Orchard Park's Prestige Wine & Spirits just off Rte. 219 at Milestrip Road, continues in the grand tradition of the other Premier locations, offering both excellent value and wide selection of wines and premier spirits from across the globe. The location for this Premier wine store, Orchard Park, is perfectly situated to serve customers from Pennsylvania and the southtowns, as well as Buffalo residents. This Premier spirits store is famed for its offerings of local New York state wines, in particular.
